Parente Portal
Si ya tiene una cuenta en el Portal para padres, pero tiene problemas técnicos (contraseña olvidada, bloqueo, etc.), envíe un correo electrónico al coordinador técnico de Boone, Patrick Chi (ptchi@cps.edu) para que pueda restablecer su cuenta. Una vez que se restablezca su cuenta, debería recibir un correo electrónico de Aspen con más instrucciones. Se puede encontrar información adicional proporcionada por el distrito en este enlace.
Parent Portal
Parent Portal gives parents the ability to view students' grades in real time. If you are setting up your Parent Portal account for the first time, please visit the First Time Parent Portal Set-Up link. This is a one-time step and not necessary after every school year. Once you receive your email from Aspen to help set up your username and password, you can access Parent Portal at Aspen Parent Portal.
If you already have a Parent Portal account, but are running into technical issues (forgot password, locked out, etc), please email Boone's tech coordinator Patrick Chi (ptchi@cps.edu) so he can reset your account. Once your account is reset, you should receive an email from Aspen with further instructions. Additional information provided by the district can be found at this link.
CPS Guide for Parents and Educators
We know you may have questions about what things will look like as the school year begins, so CPS has created a guide for parents that covers many important topics. This resource may be adjusted as new information becomes available, and we will proactively update families on any changes.

Este recurso puede ajustarse a medida que haya nueva información disponible, y actualizaremos de manera proactiva a las familias sobre cualquier cambio.
